Senate passes $91.3 billion war funding bill

By ANDREW TAYLOR,
Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON – The Senate on Thursday passed a $91.3 billion military spending bill, shorn of money President Barack Obama wants to close the Guantanamo Bay prison but allowing him to significantly ramp up the U.S. war in Afghanistan.

The spending measure closely tracks Obama’s request for war funds, although the $80 million he was seeking to close the U.S. naval prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, was dropped Wednesday.

The Senate voted 86-3 to pass the bill, which provides money for military and diplomatic operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, setting up House-Senate talks on a compromise measure to present to Obama next month.

CLOP:

SONOFABUSH! Well, ain’t that special. Two of ethically challenged statusQUObama’s campaign lies in one article! He lied about closing gitmo and he lied about ending the war! Joe six pack should be proud, until he hears about this from ap:

Beer tax on tap for health care?

WASHINGTON (AP) — Consumers in the United States may have to hand over nearly $2 more for a case of beer to help provide health insurance for all.

Details of the proposed beer tax are described in a Senate Finance Committee document that will be used to brief lawmakers Wednesday at a closed-door meeting.

CLOP:

DAGNABIT! A BEER TAX? If that doesn’t start a fucking redneck revolution I don’t know what it’s gonna take! Luckily for the feckless appaRATchiks in washingtOOn they also passed a piece of legislation the rednecks will just love. This from ap:

Loaded guns allowed in national parks under bill

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Democratic-controlled Congress is moving to restore a Bush administration policy that allowed loaded guns in national parks.

The Senate voted Tuesday to allow guns in national parks and wildlife refuges, and the House could follow suit as soon as Wednesday.

The measure is included in a popular bill imposing new restrictions on credit card companies. Democratic leaders have said they hope to send a final version to the White House for the president’s signature by week’s end.

CLOP:

I can hear em now: “well bubba, they be taxin’ us mo’ fer beer, but at least we can go out and shoot up the national parks once we get drunk YEEEEEEEHAAAAAAAAAA!”

We insist that the criminal statusQUObama admin:

Cut pork barrel military spending by 50%! FUCK the military industrial complex!

That the disaster of a war should continue indefinitely. laBAMAnostra has the same exit strategy as laBUSHanostra did, no exit strategy what so ever! The corpoRATe pigs agree the current war should be escalated and additional wars should be started whenever possible!

That the waste, fraud, and abuse pork barrel spending on ever larger pentagon budgets should continue and money “should be no object” when it comes to the funding of military death and destruction! paygo my ass!

That the thieving corpoRATe insurance companies (the rotten aig being only the tip of the corpoRATe iceberg in the insurance larceny business) should be able to continue to pocket almost half of our health care dollars via the waste fraud and abuse filled current “free market health care system.” This ripoff comes in the form of over the top corpoRATe insurer “administrative costs” and corpoRATe drug pusher profiteering even as the rest of us are badly served by their wealth care, NOT REALLY HEALTH CARE SYSTEM!

That the wal-fare system (click this link to see how I defined the wal-fare system in an earlier post) started by the klinton klan co-presidents slick willy and hillary dillary doo (she a former walmart board member and both former co-presidents are now made members of laBAMAnostra) and made ever worse by the waste, fraud, and abuse pork barrel funding of so called “faith based” organizations should be able to continue to poverty pimp we poor folks into ever deeper poverty! Punitive policies that force us into slave labor, low wage “jobs” and sermons are no replacement for the basic human needs based system we should have!

That the inherently dishonorable corpoRATe criminals should be allowed to continue to “self police” as the idiots in washingtOOn chant the tired deregulation mantra!

It’s time to put an end to deregulation and the kid glove wrist slap treatment they get by regulating the corpoRATeers and RICO statute CRIMINAL PROSECUTIONS OF THE corpoRATe THIEVES!

The pro dirty dem phony “progressives” owe Ralph Nader a VERY BIG AND WELL DESERVED APOLOGY! The complete failure of obamessiah’s neolib agenda proves that the politically inbred klinton klan neolib hillbilly and green washer, al bore, would have been just as bad as g’dubya was in the oval office! That is if global warming al succeeded in carrying his home state and had won the presidency in 2000!
